    Rice ball the size of a softball.
    Rey S.

    We were famished after a long hike so we pulled into the first decently reviewed place we came to, and almost turned back around when we saw the outside, but I'm so glad we didn't! This place is in a strip mall and the menu posted in the window was small and kind of random, but since we were starving we went in anyway. The inside was totally different than what I expected. This is a cute little family owned place with just a few tables, very causal, but also very clean and welcoming. Exactly what you'd hope for in an authentic Italian mom and pop stop. Turns out menu outside was just the specials, the full menu is HUGE. They have everything from upscale pasta dishes to sandwiches. I think even the biggest or pickiest groups would find something worth loving here. I was overwhelmed by all the choices but our server was incredibly helpful. She made several great suggestions, and told us details about preparation and serving sizes. We ended up ordering a rice ball and a series sandwich (like a chicken park but in a lighter sauce), both of which were massive and even with two people barely finished them. Both items were delicious, the bread seemed fresh, all warm and crunchy, while the rice ball was perfectly seasoned and flavorful. I can't imagine another time we'll be lost and hungry in this part of the world, but I pinned this little gem of a restaurant on my map so that if I'm passing through again I will remember to stop here!

    On this rainy December day, @BigDudesBigFoods stopped for lunch in #WhartonNJ at @LaForchettaNJ We were attracted to the uniquely named delicious sandwiches. I got the #Baciagaloop and Joe got the #GodFather Between the two of us, we covered most of the meats on the Italian cold cuts spectrum. Both perfectly dressed with #FreshMozzarella , sliced tomatoes and #ExtraVirginOliveOil They were fantastic! We chose them over the Pesci, Stallone, Deniro, Pavarotti, Cruise, Michelangelo and Paulie Walnuts. #LaForchetta is a nice, little, NJ Italian restaurant in a Wharton strip mall with a very friendly and helpful crew. Nolberto Mejia and the La Forchetta familia took great care of us!!! It does not disappoint!! It's only been my second time here but I would bet on anything on the menu. #BigDudesBigFoods #SupportSmallBusiness #CelebrateEveryDay #globaleats #shenanigans #BDBFCertified #ThePhoneEatsFirst #Forkyeahfoodies #BDBF #LifeIsFood @forkyeahfoodies #YouDontKnowJersey #TeaseTheDay #ClearEyesFullBelliesCantLose #ABigDudesGottaDoWhatABigDudesGottaDo #HaveYouHuggedABigDudeToday

    While we're in this "pandemic/no indoor dining" situation, my wife and I have been trying to order from as many local businesses as possible. Last Friday, we got takeout from La Forchetta for the first time. We ordered a large cheese pie, half a dozen garlic knots, and a side Caesar salad. Everything was very good! My only issue was that for a large pie, it was smaller than usual. The side salad was also very small, I should have just ordered a regular salad. The garlic knots were the opposite... they were huge and delicious! Bonus is that I found out that they deliver to my town. I'll keep them in my takeout rotation!

    Personal 12" Caprese Pizza. This was UHHMAZING!

    I met up with my besties and had the best evening! I started with a passion fruit speciality…read morecocktail and enjoyed the free chips and salsa. There is a full bar which is huge and can make any drink you wish. They have some excellent specialty cocktails. We ordered the guacamole and chips before ordering delicious entrees. We also got the corn and split it so we had room for dinner. I had the rib eye special with a chimichurri sauce, spinach mashed potatoes, and veggies. The steak was perfectly medium rare and the sauce was perfection. I never had spinach mash before but felt good about getting some extra iron in my carbs. I didn't love the zucchini, (weird taste) but the other veggies were fine. My friend picked the burger and fries to satisfy their beef craving. The fries were crispy and perfect while my friend said her burger was excellent. Other friend went for the salmon and veggies, she enjoyed it and had to bring some home because it was a big serving. Last friend got the chicken rice bowl special and opted for grilled chicken instead of fried. They were super accommodating about making changes so we had exactly what we wanted. Again, big portion so she is excited to have lunch tomorrow. The music is very lively and the service is excellent. Be sure to stop in but do make reservations. We decided to grab dessert and had the lemon raspberry cake plus some of the homemade sorbet. One cappuccino and a cup of tea made us all happy and we enjoyed a nice leisurely meal. My friends had not been here before and we all plan on coming back soon. There was valet parking, so be aware and bring some cash for tips if you are so inclined.

Our food came out good, but shrimp in tacos was bland, add on chicken in Cesar salad over salted (on a bed of halves of whole romaine lettuce). Drinks were fine. Reasonable prices.
